“Pirates’ ” effort to dominate the international market for the 11th time in 12 weeks, was thwarted by German entry “Perfume: The Story of a Murderer.” The Tom Tykwer-helmed film emerged as the weekend’s No. 1 international film with an estimated take of $11.3 million from 1,300 screens in five markets.
